This is a good way of approaching to the web masters. In this way they came to know about your past work and also the ideas which you have for their blogs. Some blogs provide their own format and requirements, so follow according to it in that case.

Some More Tips On Getting Your Guest Post Approved

1. Write your post first before approaching anyone. The blog owner may immediately respond to you and ask for the content and in that case if you don't have it , they may kick you out.

2. Every blog have a different style of writing. So before sending it to them, try to know and write your content in their blog's style.

3. Providing a sample content is very important for some web masters. They will look for your past guest post on other blogs and then only they will decide whether to accept your content or not. It is good to approach low authority blogs first and get some experience to show for the high authority web masters.

4. Writing the content which is relevant to their blog. They are not going to accept it if you are not writing which will help their readers.

5. Don't include your affiliate links without asking their permission. Mostly, they will not allow to add your affiliate links. Only they will provide you a few backlinks. 

6. Don't give the web owner too much of work i.e your post should be completed byline, formatted and all the necessary images also included on your server so that the blog owner can directly post it without doing much efforts.
